[0033] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0034] This embodiment provides a sealing structure for sealing the entrance of the garbage bag 100. The garbage bag 100 is connected to the waste outlet 201 of the pet toilet 200, and the excrement discharged through the waste outlet 201 enters the garbage bag 100 for easy cleaning. Figure 1 As shown, the sealing structure includes a drive assembly 1 and a pressing member 2. The drive assembly 1 is arranged on the pet toilet 200. The drive assembly 1 includes two drive mechanisms 11. The two drive mechanisms 11 are spaced apart and arranged on opposite sides of the waste outlet 201. The pressing member 2 is rotatably connected between the two drive mechanisms 11. Under the drive of the two drive mechanisms 11, the pressing member 2 has an open state abutting against the pet toilet 200 and a sealed state pressed against the garbage bag 100. In the sealed state, the excrement in the pet toilet 200 cannot enter the garbage bag 100. At the same time, the odor of the excrement in the garbage bag 100 cannot spread, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the air in the room. The structure of the sealing structure is simple and reasonable. While ensuring the sealing of the garbage bag 100, it also has good economic efficiency.

[0035] Specifically, the driving mechanism 11 is a motor commonly used in the art, as long as it can drive the pressing member 2 to rotate.

[0036] Optionally, in this embodiment, the pressing member 2 is semi-arc-shaped. This semi-arc-shaped configuration better matches the circular waste outlet 201 and is more aesthetically pleasing. In other embodiments, the pressing member 2 may also have other shapes, as long as it can compress the garbage bag 100 and seal the entrance of the garbage bag 100 in a sealed state.

[0037] Alternatively, as Figure 2 As shown, the sealing structure further includes a protective shell 3, which is provided on the pet toilet 200 and covers the drive assembly 1. The provision of the protective shell 3 can provide protection for the drive assembly 1 and extend the service life of the two drive mechanisms 11.

[0038] Furthermore, the protective shell 3 is provided with multiple fasteners, each of which is screwed onto the pet litter box 200, thereby detachably connecting the protective shell 3 to the pet litter box 200. This facilitates disassembly and facilitates maintenance and replacement of the drive assembly 1. Specifically, the fasteners are bolts commonly used in the art. The outer wall of the pet litter box 200 is provided with multiple threaded holes, and the multiple fasteners are screwed into the multiple threaded holes in a one-to-one correspondence. The number of fasteners can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0039] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the protective shell 3 may also be mounted on the outer wall of the pet litter box 200 .

[0040] Optionally, combined Figure 1 A connecting shaft 4 is provided between each drive mechanism 11 and the compression member 2, and each connecting shaft 4 passes through the protective shell 3. Driven by the drive mechanism 11, the connecting shaft 4 and the compression member 2 can simultaneously rotate about the axis of the connecting shaft 4, driving the compression member 2 to switch between the open state and the sealed state. The arrangement of the connecting shaft 4 prevents interference between the compression member 2 and the protective shell 3, ensuring smooth rotation of the compression member 2.

[0041] Optionally, the sealing structure also includes a control component. The control component is connected to the drive component 1 and is used to control the switching of the compression member 2 between the open state and the sealed state. Specifically, a sensor is provided in the pet toilet 200, and the sensor is used to monitor whether the stirring member in the pet toilet 200 is rotating, and the sensor is connected to the control component. When the stirring member starts to rotate, that is, when the excrement in the pet toilet 200 enters the garbage bag 100 through the waste outlet 201, the signal monitored by the sensor can be transmitted to the control component. After receiving the signal, the control component can control the drive component 1 to start and drive the compression member 2 to rotate to the open state. When the stirring member stops rotating, the sensor again transmits the monitored signal to the control component. After receiving the signal, the control component controls the drive component 1 to start and drive the compression member 2 to rotate to the sealed state to prevent the odor in the garbage bag 100 from escaping and ensure the cleanliness of the indoor air.

[0042] For example, the sensor and the stirring member are both prior art, and their specific structures and principles are referred to the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The control structure is a controller disclosed in the prior art, such as an STM32 controller, and a relevant program is burned on the controller to realize the control of the drive component 1. The relevant program is referred to the prior art.

[0043] In addition, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also provides a pet toilet 200, which includes the above-mentioned sealing structure and has all the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned sealing structure, which will not be described in detail here.

[0044] Optionally, a groove 202 is provided on the outer wall of the pet litter box 200, surrounding the waste outlet 201. When the pressing member 2 is in the open position, the pressing member 2 abuts against the bottom wall of the groove 202. The provision of the groove 202 allows the pressing member 2 to be retracted into the groove 202, resulting in a more rational and aesthetically pleasing structure.

[0045] Optionally, a guide member 203 is provided at the waste outlet 201 , and the guide member 203 extends into the garbage bag 100 , which can provide guidance for the excrement discharged through the waste outlet 201 , ensuring that the excrement enters the garbage bag 100 smoothly.

[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide member 203 is a semi-arc plate to fit the circular waste outlet 201 .

[0047] Optionally, a trash can 204 is provided on the outer wall of the pet toilet 200, and the trash bag 100 is placed in the trash can 204. The above arrangement can prevent the trash bag 100 from being punctured by external sharp objects, making it easy to clean.

[0048] Specifically, the trash can 204 is snap-fitted to the outer wall of the pet litter box 200 to facilitate disassembly and cleaning of the trash can 204 .

[0049] Obviously, the above-described embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the manner in which the present invention is to be implemented. A person skilled in the art would be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
